Housekeeping
- Status of this Wiki
Next steps for the SIG
- Review the dedicated SIG page
  - Review of the actions agreed at last meeting - needed before "go-live"
Solicitation for members
Discussion on creating an introductory online/training tutorial
- Introductory sections for non-technical audiences and to set the stage
- Subsequent sections building on the introduction to go more in-depth and perhaps with exercises
- Work in conjunction with the IAOA Education Committee
- Mark Fox working on a "gentle introduction to ontologies" and will forward to the SIG
  - This would be a starting point, but would need SIG consensus
Discussion on an issue of the Journal of Applied Ontology related to reuse and lessons learned
- Extending and discussing the work of this year's Ontology Summit
Brainstorm and share information about people and projects relevant to this SIG and reach out them to make them aware of our existence and maybe invite them for a talk or an informal chat
- Establish knowledge base and list of knowledgeable individuals, and understand current work, projects and interests
Next Meeting
- interest in having 2 meetings per month
  - 1 meeting for event-related logistics and management,
  - another for topics of research and project-related discussions (promote ontology practices and development)
